The wilt pathogen induces different variations of root-associated microbiomes of plant

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2022
Root-associated compartments, including the rhizosphere, rhizoplane, and endosphere, live with diverse microbial communities which profoundly affect plant growth and health.

Strain-Level Diversity Impacts Cheese Rind Microbiome Assembly and Function

mSystems, 2020
Diversification can generate genomic and phenotypic strain-level diversity within microbial species. This microdiversity is widely recognized in populations, but the community-level consequences of microbial strain-level diversity are poorly ...

Aedes albopictus microbiome derives from environmental sources and partitions across distinct host tissues

MicrobiologyOpen, 2023
The mosquito microbiome consists of a consortium of interacting microorganisms that reside on and within culicid hosts. Mosquitoes acquire most of their microbial diversity from the environment over their life cycle. Once present within the mosquito host,

Host Plant Selection Imprints Structure and Assembly of Fungal Community along the Soil-Root Continuum

mSystems, 2022
The soil fungal community plays pivotal roles in soil nutrient cycling and plant health and productivity in agricultural ecosystems. However, the differential adaptability of soil fungi to different microenvironments (niches) is a bottleneck limiting ...

Impact of breastfeeding and other early-life factors on the development of the oral microbiome

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2023
The oral cavity is home to the second most diverse microbiome in the human body. This community contributes to both oral and systemic health. Acquisition and development of the oral microbiome is a dynamic process that occurs over early life; however ...

Rhizosphere microbiome: Functional compensatory assembly for plant fitness

Computational and Structural Biotechnology Journal, 2021
Environmental pressure to reduce our reliance on agrochemicals and the necessity to increase crop production in a sustainable way have made the rhizosphere microbiome an untapped resource for combating challenges to agricultural sustainability. In recent

Does colorectal cancer significantly influence the assembly of gut microbial communities? [PDF]

PeerJ, 2017
Colorectal cancer (CRC) is the third commonest malignant tumor. Previous studies have revealed that the composition change of the human gut microbiome, measured by community diversity, is associated with the progression of CRC.

Gut-associated functions are favored during microbiome assembly across a major part of C. elegans life

mBio
The microbiome expresses a variety of functions that influence host biology. The range of functions depends on the microbiome’s composition, which can change during the host’s lifetime due to neutral assembly processes, host-mediated selection, and ...

Ecological niche selection shapes the assembly and diversity of microbial communities in Casuarina equisetifolia L.

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2022
The plant microbiome profoundly affects many aspects of host performance; however, the ecological processes by which plant hosts govern microbiome assembly, function, and dispersal remain largely unknown.
